Primary Hyperaldosteronism as a Cause of Resistant Hypertension: A Case Report
ABSTRACT In young patients with resistant hypertension and hypokalemia, primary hyperaldosteronism should be suspected. Biochemical assessment and adrenal imaging could identify surgically curable aldosterone‐producing adenomas, and a normalization of blood pressure, potassium levels, and symptom resolution can be achieved through adrenalectomy.

Primary Aldosteronism Subtype Diagnosis: Adrenal Venous Sampling vs. CXCR4 PET CT
We compared CXCR4 PET/CT and AVS for primary aldosteronism subtyping. CXCR4 showed no statistical difference from AVS in diagnostic and prognostic outcomes in this study, which offers a non‐invasive alternative for PAlateralisation. ABSTRACT Purpose To explore the clinical value of adrenal venous sampling (AVS) and CXCR4‐directed 68Ga‐pentixafor PET/CT
